This was a personal Dunning Kruger experience for me\u2026<\/p>\n

\"En literatura, la ambici\u00f3n del novicio es adquirir el lenguaje literario; la lucha del adepto es deshacerse de \u00e9l\".<\/p>\n

- George Bernard Shaw<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Some years ago, I participated in several face-to-face users\u2019 group meetings in Europe. I thought my presentations at these conferences were well above average, and much better than our CEO\u2019s talks, whose delivery in my opinion was overly simple and deliberate.<\/p>\n

Al final del primer d\u00eda de una reuni\u00f3n, algunos clientes participantes y ponentes se reunieron en el bar del hotel para socializar. En busca de cumplidos (yo era mucho m\u00e1s joven y quiz\u00e1 menos sabio que hoy), pregunt\u00e9 a algunos de mis clientes europeos a qui\u00e9n apreciaban m\u00e1s como ponentes.<\/p>\n

I was surprised (and slightly appalled, initially!) to learn that \u201cthe best speaker, without question, is your CEO\u2026\u201d When I asked, \u201cWhy?\u201d they pointed out that for all the Continental participants, English was a second language. They said, \u201cYour CEO\u2019s delivery is easy to understand, and he uses words that we don\u2019t have to look up afterwards!\u201d<\/p>\n

Lecci\u00f3n aprendida.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Moraleja: utilice un ingl\u00e9s internacional y hable m\u00e1s despacio.<\/p>\n
